B. F. KEITH'S THEATRE, CINCINNATI, OHIO. Week of March 1st, 1914. John F. Royal. KITARO FOUR 10 MIN. F.S. Pal. Four Chinamen in foot juggling and balancing. Very clever. Splendid opening act. They received a fine closing. INDIANAPOLIS. MOORE AND YOUNG 15 min. in One. Two pretty and clever girls with a lot of pep and ginger in their act. They sing well and put their material over in fine style. All their numbers went good and, as it was the only singing act on the bill, naturally made a hit. Big closing. ATLANTA ARTHUR SULLIVAN AND COMPANY 15 min. F.S. Kitch. Int. Two men and a woman in a dramatic act entitled "Straight". Very interesting crook sketch and held the interest throughout. Some bright lines, good situations and the punch at the finish went over great. Strong closing. INDIANAPOLIS. STAN STANLEY TRIO 21 min. Open in One, close F.S. Two men and a woman. A scream from start to finish. A great big hit. LOUISVILLE. CLARKE AND VERDI 14 min. in One. This Italian act did not get over, because they followed so much talk. Their act is quiet and the people in this town did not recognize the Italian character. The men have good material, but unfortunately they did not get over here. TOLEDO "BEAUTY IS ONLY SKIN DEEP" 25 min. F.S. Special. One act play, showing interior of beauty parlor and offering a very exclusive theme. It proved a very big hit with the women and ought to cause a lot of talk in town. Interesting all the way, brought forth big laughs and closed strong. INDIANAPOLIS. SAM AND KITTY MORTON 13 min. in One. Big reception. Act went over strong, especially their last number when they go back thirty-two years. While their material is not new, it went bigger than ever. LOUISVILLE. BANKOFF AND GIRLIE 10 min. F.S. Bankoff is the most remarkable dancer ever seen here. As a technical artist he has all these other "Near Dancers" in the shade. His solo number was simply sensational, and in the middle of the show would have gone tremendous. As it was, made a big hit. Their double numbers were not exceptionally wonderful, but still were good. Considering the closing position, the act was a hit. LOUISVILLE EXCLUSIVE MOTION PICTURES OF MARDI GRAS AND THE CINCINNATI BASE BALL TEAM TRAINING IN NEW ORLEANS - Pictures made Thursday afternoon shown here Sunday afternoon. Very interesting. CUTS "Hell" and "Dam" from Mortons. Word "God" as used once in "Beauty Is Only Skin Deep" "Wipe your nose" Stan Stanley.
